Need for a systematized approach to naming radiology procedures
• Many different imaging modalities & vendors, varying names– “radiography,” “X-ray,” US,” “sonogram,” etc.
• Similar imaging protocols among institutions, but use different naming methods
• How to identify similar imaging devices and procedures? Need ontology of imaging procedures.
RadLex ontology of imaging devices and procedures
• A catalog of terms to describe the imaging devices, imaging procedures, and imaging sequences that are employed in radiology
• Procedures identified according to distinguishing characteristics – imaging device– anatomic region imaged– scanning parameters– agent administered
• Vendor-independent terms
ontology of imaging devices and procedures
